Download the rom, unzip it if needed, open up a term window and type:
tuxnes [the-rom]
Or, if you have an aversion to term windows you can use gtuxnes.

FYI,

Most of the NES games on the web site are packaged as filename.zip files, even though for some strange reason the download manager sometimes does not include the .zip extension.

So in order to make the game work, add the .zip to the end of the file name. Then use gunzip to unzip the file. Then use gtuxnes to run the game file.
